My faction of Dark Eldar, the Lemarchand Kabal, now have an allied Wraithknight, in keeping with their Eldar allies' Necromantic theme.

With Suncannon and shield:

It is fully magnetised - here is the alternate armament: a Ghostglaive, twin Starcannon and shield:

I had initially tried to magnetise the weapon arms with one magnet, but that Suncannon is so damned heavy I had to use two. Here's the layout.

THAT is fantastically creative.
What medium did you sculpt with? Is that green stuff?

No, Milliput. GS is fine for flesh and such, but for smooth, flat lines, I personally prefer to use Milliput, because you can carve it. Neither clay is better than the other, they're just different. Plus, I taught myself Milliput long before I ever tried GS, so I have more experience with it.

I've heard that, too.

I've also heard that Milliput is ever so slightly... just a little... poison. :(

Really?

I've never had any problems.

I should probably re-read the warning label... :(
